The Scorpion list has also undergone major changes to reflect the recent arrivals and a few that have sold out. New to the list are Asian Forest Scorpions (Heterometrus sp.) and Pygmy Wood Scorpions (Liocheles australasiae), the latter being a parthenogenetic species that looks like a miniature Flat Rock (Hadogenes spp.)! We are really hoping to see some of these species go into breeding projects and have offered discounts on multiples for those interested in starting one up =-> We still have good numbers of Emperor Scorpions (Pandinus imperator) in stock as well and while it was a very long wait, it was well worth it! We have a range of sizes from CB juveniles to some truly gigantic monsters that are without question the largest scorpions we have ever seen! Several of these measured a full 11", smashing the Guinness Book of World Record's claim of 9" being the maximum size for the species!! In addition to the CB juvenile Dictator Scorpions (Pandinus dictator), we have one adult female and lots of unsexed subadults and adults for those looking to start a breeding project for this species as well. Like their Emperor cousins, these large and impressive scorpions are highly sought after and difficult to come by and we waited a long time to get them!

New to the Other Invertebrates list are Thai (Typopeltis tarnifer) and Arizona Giant Vinegarones (Mastigoproctus tohono) as well as a new (to us!) Tailess Whip species (Euphrynichus orientalis)! For centipede lovers, we have quite a selection of uncommon centipedes, includng Thai Mint Leg and Giant White Beard (Scolopendra spp.) Centipedes!

The Reptile list has also undergone many changes! Among the recent arrivals are the much anticipated Green Tree Pythons (Morelia viridis), Blue Tongue Skinks (Tilqua gigas evanescens), Frilled Dragons (Chlamydosaurus kingii), baby Peach Throat (Varanus jobiensis) and Black Roughneck (Varanus rudicollis) Monitors, Red Eyed Crocodile Skinks (Tribolonotus gracilis) and even Caiman Lizards (Dracaena guianensis)! These incredibly interactive babies are already eating in our hands and we are the only source in the country for these rarities. Looking something like a Crocodile with a Tegu's head, these snail eating river monsters are rather comical with their dark, beady eyes and slow tongues! For Chelonian lovers, we have Red Foot (Chelonoidis carbonaria), Russian (Agrionemys horsfieldi) and Hermann's Tortoises (Testudo hermanni) as well as Razor Backed Musk Turtles (Sternotherus carinatus) - all hatched right here in BC!!

New to the Miscellaneous Goods section are new spiderling enclosures! These are available in 2 sizes (3"x3"x1.5" and 4.5"x4.5"x3") and come complete with substrate! We are also clearing out some critter keepers and will be offering these at discount pricing for pickup and air cargo customers. Though we can also ship these by mail, please be advised that the larger volume may affect shipping rates. Also new are reusable shopping totes at 3$ each or 2/5$. Measuring 13"x13", these polypropylene bags are over 4" deep (ideal for carrying deli cups at expos!) and strong enough for small grocery runs! We have also updated and streamlined the rodent pricing. Sizes not listed may be custom ordered, but only in larger numbers and chicks are also back in stock! Prices are now available for prepackaged lots as well and larger orders will be eligible for further discounts - please inquire when ordering.

Having trouble finding a particular species? Try using your browser's find feature (F3, Control-F or Apple-F) and searching for the species name alone (for example, F3, followed by "verdezi").

Give the gift of spiders anytime! We offer gift cards! These can be purchased online with your credit card and gifted via email, printed out and mailed to your Arachnid-loving friends and relatives or even retained for your own use!.

We are always on the lookout for more Chelonian species! If you are a turtle or tortoise breeder, please contact us!

Want to get sneak peeks, special offers and who knows what else? Join our mailing list by emailing us with "mealworm" as the subject! I do apologise for the latency of this mailing list, but it is one of the last tasks to get done and the care of the animals (and our customers!) always comes first!! The bright side? The longer it takes to get the mailer out, the more likely a surprise special will be in it ;)
